Registration is now being accepted for
the 2008/2009 School Year!
The Glendale Heights Preschool Program prepares your child for kindergarten by providing a loving, caring environment taught by experienced early childhood teachers. Children are encouraged to explore, discover and create through fun-filled learning experiences. Children participate in a variety of developmentally appropriate activities designed to help them socially, academically, and physically. This continuous program also helps provide the basis for future reading and writing skills. It also includes activities in the areas of music, art, language development, science, math and gross and fine motor development.
Our preschool program curriculum reflects the guidelines of the State of Illinois learning standards. We are proud to be licensed by the Illinois Department of Children & Family Services (D.C.F.S.).
Fees are listed as Resident/School District Resident/Nonresident

This class is a great way to prepare your child for our Preschool Program. Children will meet preschool staff and become familiar with the classrooms. Emphasis is placed on socialization skills, as well as building self-confidence and good self-esteem. Each week a new theme will be explored through fun-filled stories, songs, finger plays, art and dramatic play. Please bring a small snack and drink. Children must be 2.5 years old and may wear diapers or pull-ups but will not be changed by instructors.
